Ruidoso for the Weekend

Capi and Gigi just moved (literally yesterday) into their new house in Ruidoso, and so we got to go up there to check it out (and cool off!!) for the weekend! On Friday, we headed straight to the hanger to play while we waited for Capi to come pick us up in the plane. The boys are always excited to go play at the hanger! 
And they are always excited to go flying!!
Barrett was in the back with the boys, and I got to fly right seat... it was a fast and beautiful flight! 

Relaxing before bed in their new beautiful living room (and on my all-time favorite couch!!)
The view out our bedroom window- I feel relaxed already! 
The front of their house... so cool!
Went for a quick walk, and came up to the front door to see these little faces looking at me! haha! 
LJ helping Evan put on his shoes so we can go play... he is the best brother (most of the time!)! 
 
 Look what LJ found! Too cool!! 
Time to go exploring ... LJ found his stick immediately! 
Practicing golf?!

LJ found a hill to run up and down- this was very entertaining! 

Parents' house is right on the golf course, so as long as no one was coming, we could play there... it was so pretty! 

Tips from dad! 

Decided to attempt a walk to the club for breakfast with the small umbrella strollers- and then Evan wanted to be held! Poor Barrett was not very happy with the situation - but I couldn't help but laugh (sorry!). 
Barrett and Capi played a game of golf, and we went to watch them as they played the holes the house is on... boys were so excited to see them play! 


Their balcony (where we are standing) and just a little ways out they are playing golf... so fun! 
 
The boys and Gigi relaxing by the pond at the club after lunch- what a beautiful day!!! 
Hanging with the no-napper on the couch while Evan sleeps!
Playing in the sprinkler on the Heli-pad (yes a helipad just a few feet from their balcony!) after naps... 
Out for a little walk before dinner... happy boys with their Capi!

LJ fell asleep on the quick drive to the club for dinner and was out as hard as I've ever seen him! He slept like this on Barrett for about 40 minutes before we had to wake him up to eat! This poor kid is so tired but refuses to nap! 
Evan insisting on Capi's lap! 
Wonderful time- sorry LJ missed so much of it! 
Silly boys in the morning! 
 
 
And back to the club for breakfast! Mmmm!
My cute hubby! 
Home to play before driving back to El Paso...
 LJ and his new parachuter from Capi and Gigi- too much fun! He loves these things!!



So cute! 

This deck is so wonderful!
A shot of the living room and out to the balcony... 

 A shot of the kitchen! Love the openness of this place- and so did the boys! They were so excited to just RUN around! Think they are a little cramped in our apartment?! 
Hugs good-bye!
Bye to Gigi
Thanks for such a fun and cool (literally!) weekend Capi and Gigi! We loved it!!

Trampoline Park

Went back to Trampoline Park on Sunday... LJ has gotten so much better and more confident - guess all the practice time on his little trampoline is paying off! Still so much fun for Dad...  And the Mamas finally get in on all the fun!  Last time we went I was VERY pregnant and couldn't jump... but not this time! I see a frequent Sunday family outing in our future! A little sliding time... And video gaming! Too much fun!!

Ellie - Our Earliest Crawler!

Our little 'surprise' baby got us again and started crawling 2 months earlier than the boys did! She was close for about a week, and then at just about 8.5 months, she took her first crawls! She is getting the hang of it quickly... time to secure the legos that seem to always be all over the floor! First she started rocking on her knees, and doing little army crawls/ knees/ army crawl to get places. Then about a week later, we saw her first crawls. Within a week after those first crawls, she was all over the place!!! She will come find me in the kitchen if I leave her sitting in the living room and will venture all over the house! She's not fast, but she's pretty good! And so proud of herself! Here are some videos of her progress... Ellie's first little mini-crawls: h ttp://www.youtube.com/watch? v=xm3GTgjZXbU And she has mastered the roll-to-sit move! Yay! http://www.youtube.com/watch? v=0cmXfOE3GrA Five days of crawling... she is so obsessed with the t...

Mother's Day Celebrations

Image
What a special and spoiled week I had!!! On Tuesday I picked these two precious things up from Champions:  Then the first celebration (well not including the Chick-fil-a mom-son date knight) was on Wednesday. LJ's class at WHPP had a Mother's Day Tea- and how lucky we were that Gigi came to town late on Tuesday night and was able to join me!!  Since Gigi was there (the only Grandmother in the room!), we got a table all to ourselves... and also LJ had twice the amount of work! He served both Gigi and me our tea/ lemonade, cookies, and fruit snacks!  He made me a very fun necklace and made me a new coffee mug all wrapped up...      I started crying when I read it: "This is the hand you used to hold when I was only 4 years old" with a hand print ned to it!!! How special!!  And a flower for Gigi!!!   This was outside LJ's classroom...  I am chopped liver with these two! Haha!!  We picked up Evan a...
